About Me

I'm Jeff, a full-stack Software Engineer from Melbourne, Australia, and I have a passion for elegant and robust software solutions.

I have been programming for over 3 years now, and I have worked on a variety of projects ranging from small personal projects to large enterprise applications.

In my spare time, I enjoy powerlifting, playing video games, and going to concerts. I also enjoy learning new technologies and frameworks, and I am always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow my skillset.

Experience

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from RMIT University, where I built a strong understanding of programming, data structures, software development, and software architecture. See my Academic Transcript.

I had the amazing opportunity to complete a software engineering internship at propella.ai. This hands-on experience allowed me to apply my knowledge and skills in a real-world setting and solidified my passion for software development.

I was offered a junior software engineer role at Propella, which allowed me to continue my growth and make valuable contributions to the team, whilst completing my university studies.

I was able to see one customer-facing product through from development to launch with heavy involment in the architecture and development of the product. On top of this, I was able to take on a greenfield project to develop a custom internal tool for the team which tightly integrated with the company's main products which were data science and data engineering focused.

My time at Propella has propelled(pun intended) my skills as a developer and has gifted me a close look at the inner workings of a startup.
